About
Stories History Forgot
History is full of stories too strange, too tragic, or too inconvenient to make the textbooks. Generative History exists to tell them, the way they deserve to be told.
We make premium, cinematic, investigative films, the production value of a streaming documentary, the rigor of real research, and the pace of a thriller. Every film starts with the historical record: testimony, inquiries, primary sources. Then we put you in the room.
Our first film, The Sultana Disaster of 1865, is the perfect example: the worst maritime disaster in American history, killed more people than the Titanic, and forgotten within a week. We think it deserved better. So do the people in it.
